The review of the non-financial reporting directive (NFRD) – The way forward

The proposal for a sustainability reporting directive (SRD) is expected to be published in April 2021 for consideration by the European Parliament and the Council. This high-level conference is an opportunity for interested parties to find out more about the key issues and the objectives of the proposal and of its concrete implications. It will alternate between panels and keynote speeches from European and international leaders in the field of sustainable finance, including Commissioner McGuinness. The panels will address, among other topics, the role of sustainability reporting standards in promoting better sustainability disclosures from companies.
